Chapter 247 Traveling back to the Republic of China from the modern times 2

In the end, Ye Heqi thought of a solution that was not a solution.

She began to show obedience.

Obedience to Old Madam Ye and Mrs. Ye.

Put away her edges and corners, discipline her character, try her best to please Old Madam Ye and others, and learn what Old Madam Ye and others asked her to master.

She can now read the "Nuzhi" that would make her furious at a glance on weekdays without changing her expression.

Maybe she has been more patient, or maybe it is such a peaceful day that made Ye Heqi relax her vigilance. Slowly, she actually felt that this kind of life is not bad. She

has no worries about food and clothing, and she has nothing to worry about except reading a little and learning a little needlework.

But one day, she just finished needlework and walked out of her room. When she passed by Old Lady Ye's room, she happened to overhear Old Lady Ye and Mrs. Ye discussing her marriage.

They said that she had learned a lot of rules recently. They

said that the second son of the Minister of the Admiralty was 22 years old this year, had just returned from studying abroad, and fell in love with a socialite. The Minister of the Admiralty did not like the socialite's public appearance, and planned to choose a lady from a prominent family for his second son.

They said that if the second son of the Minister of the Admiralty had not firmly agreed to marry a woman with bound feet, this marriage might not have been their turn.

They said a lot.

Ye Heqi hid in the corner, and although she was listening to something related to herself, she seemed to be listening to a horror story.

She was only fifteen years old.

In her previous life, she was just a freshman in high school at this age, and her biggest concern was her academic performance.

But in this era, her elders have already set their sights on her marriage value and even her fertility value.

When she was lost and helpless, Ye Heqi thought of her mother first.

She quietly ran to the room of her original body, waved away the servants in the room, and cried silently while hugging her original body.

When the original body asked, Ye Heqi mustered up her last bit of courage: "Mom, let's run away. Escape from the Ye family, escape from Peking, and start over in a place where no one knows us."

The original body had been displaced and had no place to live in when he was young. Later, he came to the Ye family with a token and lived in the Ye family for twenty years.

Even though she knew that Ye Fuguang had a lover and a son, the original body had never thought of leaving the Ye family. At most, she had just given up on Ye Fuguang.

"Heqi, haven't you been fine these days? Why are you crying suddenly today? Did something happen to you?"

Even though the original body did not directly reject Ye Heqi, Ye Heqi still noticed her mother's thoughts at the first time.

After hearing the original body's question, Ye Heqi felt like she was falling into an ice cellar.

She might have been wrong from the beginning.

In such a world, obedience is a worse option than resistance.

Because obedience means being assimilated by the people around you without realizing it.

It has only been a few months, and she would occasionally have the thought that "it's actually not bad now."

If she hadn't been hit hard by the conversation between Old Lady Ye and Madam Ye, she would have never woken up.

But she woke up, but what about her mother?

Looking at her original body who knew nothing, Ye Heqi shook her head and stepped back.

She realized more deeply her own powerlessness.

It turned out that she really couldn't change anything.

Not only could she not save her mother, she couldn't save herself either.

A few days later, the wife of the Minister of the Admiralty came to visit with her second son.

Ye Heqi was called out to meet the guests.

The second son of the Minister of the Admiralty was wearing a suit, he looked handsome, and

his face was full of reluctance. Ye Heqi was wearing an old-fashioned gown, and his face still had a childish look.

These two people who were completely mismatched became a well-matched couple in the eyes of the elders.

Old Madam Ye even smiled and said, "In addition to learning the old ways, our Heqi is also very interested in the new ways. I believe that she and the second young master will have a lot of common topics in the future." The

second son of the Minister of the Admiralty looked at Ye Heqi in surprise.

But Ye Heqi lowered her eyes.

Old Madam Ye and the others were very opposed to her learning the new education, but now, her interest in new education has become a marriage capital worthy of praise in their mouths.

Maybe in the future she will marry the second son of the Minister of the Admiralty, and he will be willing to support her to go to a new school...

Maybe she can really escape from the Ye family by getting married and change her destiny...

But this possibility is too small.

It is more likely that she will step from a bad place to another worse place.

She will repeat her mother's mistakes.

She could already foresee her future: if she still chose to obey this time, then her few remaining edges would be completely smoothed out.

She would be completely tamed by people like Old Madam Ye, and would be completely assimilated by this era.

So this time, Ye Heqi would never compromise.

That night, Ye Heqi quietly slipped into the room of her original body, hugged the sleeping original body, and said her final goodbyes to the original body.

This time she only planned to leave by herself.

But in the process of escaping, Ye Heqi was accidentally discovered.

In front of her were densely packed people chasing her, and behind her was an icy river with no end in sight.

Ye Heqi kept retreating.

During the argument, her foot slipped and she accidentally fell into the vast river. When

she was submerged in the water, Ye Heqi struggled and called for help.

But the next moment, looking at the men and women on the shore and the servants who jumped into the water and swam towards her, Ye Heqi's mind suddenly became clear.

After being rescued by the servants, what awaited her would only be an increasingly harsh and terrible future.

Her life was no longer salvageable.

When she came to this conclusion, she gave up saving herself, stopped struggling, and let herself sink to the bottom of the river.

The lake flooded her vision, and the last time Ye Heqi looked at the world was endless darkness.

This is the darkest moment before dawn.

She knows better than anyone else in this world that dawn is about to fall and the sun is about to come out, but she will never wait for that time.

Why let an ordinary person like her travel through time?

What is the meaning of her traveling through time?

In addition to adding another dead skeleton to this cannibalistic era, what else can she do for this era.

...

[Ding, the plot has been transmitted. Mission: Save Ye Heqi and make her feel happy]

[The system detects that Ye Heqi's current collapse value is 80. Please act as soon as possible.]

***

After the rain, the courtyard was in a mess.

Several servants were cleaning up the osmanthus flowers that were knocked down by the rain.

Yao Rong smelled the fragrance of osmanthus, her attention still on the plot she had just received.

The time node she came this time was neither too early nor too late.

Half a month ago, Ye Heqi wrote a letter to Ye Fuguang.

In the letter, Ye Heqi asked her nominal father for the first time, hoping that Ye Fuguang would agree to let her go to the new-style school.

But today Ye Fuguang deliberately returned to the Ye Mansion and scolded Ye Heqi, ruining Ye Heqi's plan.

From today on, Ye Heqi pretended to be obedient, forcing himself to do what he hated most, to learn the knowledge he hated most, and then lived in two completely separated eras. A painful and entangled person, and finally exchanged death for freedom.

While thinking, Yao Rong came to the door of Ye Heqi's room.

The doors and windows of Ye Heqi's house were tightly closed. Yao Rong looked at the middle-aged woman who brought her over and said, "Auntie Wang, please go and do other things first."

After Auntie Wang left, Yao Rong raised her hand and knocked on Ye Heqi's door.

Inside the house, Ye Heqi sat quietly by the window.

She was wearing a light gray thin jacket and her hair was tied into a braid. She looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a childish outline, but her face was full of contemplation.

The location of Ye Heqi's room was not good. It was facing away from the sun and she could not get much sun on weekdays. On rainy days, the house was even more damp and cold.

When Yao Rong was talking to Wang's mother, Ye Heqi heard Yao Rong's voice and knew it was Yao Rong knocking on the door, but she was so tired that she didn't even have the strength to stand up and open the door.

The person outside the door knocked several times, and perhaps because they didn't wait for her to open the door, Ye Heqi heard footsteps gradually fading away.

Inexplicably, Ye Heqi breathed a sigh of relief.

But less than a quarter of an hour later, the footsteps appeared again.

This time Yao Rong didn't knock on the door, but knocked on the window instead.

Ye Heqi pursed her lips, unable to pretend not to hear it.

The quarrel between her and Ye Fuguang must have spread throughout the Ye family, and she didn't want her mother to worry too much.

So Ye Heqi quietly turned aside, reached out and pushed open the wooden window, ready for her mother to ask her about what happened.

The next moment, Ye Heqi heard Yao Rong ask her, "Are you hungry?"

All the grievances in Ye Heqi's heart suddenly came out.

She sniffed softly and said, "I haven't eaten a single bite of rice today."

"I knew it."

Yao Rong moved the tray hidden behind her in front of her like a magic trick. On the tray was a bowl of steaming dumplings and a vinegar dish.

"I just went to the kitchen to make you a bowl of dumplings. You come out and bring this bowl of dumplings in first. After eating, have a good sleep. We can talk about anything after you wake up, okay."

Ye Heqi got up and opened the door for Yao Rong.

Yao Rong didn't even look at the papers and pens scattered on the ground, but walked to the table with the dumplings in his hand: "Come, eat it while it's hot."

Ye Heqi sat on the stool, and felt that the mist rising from the noodle soup made her eyes a little red. She buried her head and didn't say anything, just eating the dumplings vigorously.

Yao Rong sat opposite Ye Heqi and watched her eat quietly.

When she finished eating, Yao Rong stood up and touched Ye Heqi's braided hair: "I'll take the bowl away, you should go take a nap."

Ye Heqi patted her bulging belly, and then a smile appeared on her face: "Okay."
